Slow down. That's it! The one with the dog statues in front.

Yup! There's the Cat Pen on the left side.

The magnolias sure smell good.

Let's go in Never mind the cats--they aren't real anyway.

This is the livingroom, obviously. There's Samson to greet us.

There is the front door on the left where we came in. Let's turn around and go into the den.

And to the left is the dining area, with the patio door. (Bella Mae is a little shy).

Another left at the patio door and we're in the kitchen.

Continuing down the hall...

There's the bathroom. The one and only.

Can you make your pics a bit larger... I can barely see! :(

[jenluckenbach]

They may be small pictures, but they are very nice! Lookes like a wonderful place. :)

[mruffruff]

On the right is the bedroom

And the sitting room just to the left. Scruffy thinks this is his room.

Across the hall is the cat room, formerly the guest room.

There's the window with the cat door to the pen, and on the right the cages for sick or new babies.

And the cat pen.

Let's take a quick peek outside.
This is the view from the patio. No dogs allowed. (Yeah, right!)

Samson is glad you came to visit.

Sorry there's no pool or plants. Some trees got planted, more is planned "One of these days".

Sorry about the sizes. I'll try to fix it. But it'll have to wait until Monday since this is all at work and it's FRIDAY!!!!

Mary

Guilt brought me back. Besides, the laundry will wait.

Better?

I LOVE your house!! That is MY kind of house.. Older home, not real large (room enough for 1 lady and 3 cats?) hardwood floors.. did I even see some old furniture?? Antiques? That is MY house!!! There ya go folks, she has MY house!! That is exactly what I would want if I could buy one!! And with a CAT YARD! What more could a person want?? (maybe just a few more cats?)

[kimlovescats]

Ok... the pics are much bigger now ... except the last 3 or so .... what a lovely home! It is very cozy and comfy, and I enjoyed my visit very much!:D

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Another lovely home! I love the yard and the cat pen especially - and the magnolias! They are so beautiful!

Thanks for the lovely tour and please give our doggie hosts a treat for being so good. :D

[AmberLee]

Lovely home! I particularly enjoyed the cat room and outside cat pen, and the magnolia, and beautiful Samson, and that kitchen looks great, and ... oops, I'm running off at the mouth again. I'll shut up after I say thanks for inviting us, Mary.

[NoahsMommy]

Very pretty home, Mary. :)

You give a nice tour and I love your kitty rooms and enclosures! Very cool.

:D Thanks for the tour!

[jazzcat]

I love your home, thanks for the tour!! You have a really pet house - it was great to see all the furbabies!!

Your dog statues outside are adorable!

[trayi52]

I love your beautiful home, it is simply gorgeous! Whew, I was going to run when I seen those big cats on the couch, glad they weren't real!

Thanks for the tour!

Willie:)

[catcrazylady]

What a wonderful tour! Thank you for taking us through your wonderful and beautiful home!!! I love that cat pen and the access through the window is too neat!!
The Magnolia is just beautiful!! I would love to have the wonderful setup that you do for all the animals.
Thank you so much for the visit. I really enjoyed it and I think your home is GORGEOUS!!!:D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

[mruffruff]

Thanks, everybody.

I've really gone to the dogs--and cats. Did you notice that the trash can in the kitchen is on top of the washer? And everywhere there seems to be a dog bed or scratching post. Did anyone see the gates?

No antiques here, just second or third hand stuff. Everything. If I don't refinish it, I slipcover it!

With 4 dogs and 7 cats, it has to be washable or disposable.

I'm glad you enjoyed the tour. Maybe next time we can have a glass of iced tea on the patio.

[Logan]

Mary, I immediately noticed the trash can lifted off the ground! That's a sure sign of a pet owner!!! :p

Your home is lovely. I was in West Columbia for a short while on Saturday. We stopped on our way home from the beach to have lunch before traveling on to Greenville. Maybe one day we can get together!

I can already tell I have a lot of catching up to do in order to see all the homes!! :)

[catlover4ever]

You have a very beautiful house. Isn't it amazing how much we do for the comfort of our pets than we do for ourselves.

Thank you so much for sharing you lovely home with us.

[catmandu]

You have a wonderful Home,and The Found Cats,want to visit!

[dukedogsmom]

I like the house, too. Reminds me of Tennessee with the brick. And your dogs are so cute! Love the kitty room. I'll bet you've got some happy animals.

[lynnestankard]

What a beautiful home you have Mary - many thanks for letting us all traipse through!! I'm glad we didn't spoil the cats siesta!!
Your cat pen is wonderful - I don't think I've ever seen one that big - oh wait - maybe Nicole's!! :D :D

Anytime you're in the area, you can stop and visit. This is one former Northerner who believes in Southern hospitality:D
